Comment on Ford's CEO says he definitely didn't pay for that viral video of a stuck Cybertruck needing a rescue on a snowy hill

I mean, the CyberTruck is much lower than those pick up trucks, and also has a slanted hood.

The truck could also pop the hood like the model 3 does to add a cushion zone for them, but it’s probably still too high to be as effective on a car?

I mentioned this before, but I’m really curious if any vehicle with an air suspension could drop the car lower before the pedestrian is hit. Just like they pop the hood on the 3, could it go lower it if there’s an imminent crash? Is there a way to go even lower than the lowest setting in emergencies? Seems like a good safety feature to add if not.

I’m still worried about the edge causing damage though even considering all the above, and it is still higher than a regular car.
